Today’s matchup started with LSU as a 5-point favorite. It quickly moved to LSU -7 but has declined again throughout the week. Twenty minutes before kickoff, FanDuel is still offering it at -5.5.

LSU seniors are being honored right now.

I fully expect Tiger Stadium to be rocking come kickoff, but it’s pretty dead here at the moment. Lots of seats to fill.

It’s a bit cold, so I assume there will still be a lot of fans in the halls. But don’t think the game should be affected by the weather, so that’s a plus.

Freshman TE Davon Mitchell made the trip. It is his first away game of the season. I think he will play.

Wow, are LSU’s uniforms nice tonight? White pants, purple jerseys with white numbers and white helmets with the LSU block and a tiger on the side.

Of course, the traditional street uniforms used to be purple on white.

There was an idea that LSU would wear their usual white home jerseys tonight with the yellow pants and yellow helmet, which would have put OU in their crimson home jerseys.

But LSU chose the purple colors.

Kick-off for today’s game has been postponed by five minutes to 6:10 p.m

The Sooners are in the end zone doing early warmups. There was quite a noise when they entered the arena and the stadium was 5 percent full.

OU’s first trip to Tiger Stadium will be exciting.
